need help with wrecked 2011 GT

[1FastS197]

its wrecked and we are wanting to hear it run... the theft light is on and will not turn off... looked for the inertia switch but apparently it doesn't have one... fuel pumps will not kick on, the maf has been pulled off but it should still crank and go into limp mode right? its an auto.... it had a aftermarket security system but is now removed and everything is pluged back up... does the PCM need to be reflashed? or is there some trick to get the it out of the theft lock? any help on this would be greatly appreciated...

If you have the key that came with the car then it should run, i am sure there is a fuel cut off switch some were for it also. If you dont have the original key set then you can have someone flash it and turn the PATS off.

It should run fine with the MAF unpluged also

its in the spare tire well...

Gotta get that OEM key..the modern PCM is married to it. Dealer has the tool to reflash
it, but you will still need a 80 bit key, cut of course...
Good luck.

well we figured it out, it had 4 wires that were pinched in the fender well... they were pinched in half, striped the wires back and soldered it back together and heat strinked it... fired right up... thanks for the help guys!

looking like its gonna be rebuilt.. but i have my eye's open for a crashed 11...

Should be some 11's showing up crashed. They have been out long enough.

considering you can now buy a crate 5.0 and everything for the swap already for about under 7500 - 8000 it better be a hell of a deal on a wrecked 11 car just to do a swap...

the parts car would have 99% of the parts that would nickle and dime you to death on a crate engine swap

What was the price for the car, and how bad was the damage?

Thanks.

Shit once there are more wrecked '11's out there this swap is gonna be alot cheaper than 8K.
